Buchanan to Speak at Whittier
By Adam Webster
Copy Editor
Ever since Pat Buchanan
announced his candidacy for
President of the United States,
junior Tony Strickland has been
trying to get him on campus. In
early May, Strickland's work
will become evident when
Buchanan will speak, free of
charge, in the Activities Center.
Strickland, President of the
Richard M. Nixon Republican
Club, said that it was a long
road to get Buchanan, but his
contacts proved helpful,
especially Sergio Picchio who is
a friend of Bay Buchanan, Pat's
sister and campaign manager.
Strickland called Picchio in
order to get into a small
reception last Friday where he
met the Buchanans. It was at
this gathering that he asked
them about the possibility of
Pat Buchanan speaking.
"I (told Pat Buchanan) 'Our
club would be honored to have
(him) come out here and speak
to our College,'" Strickland said.
After Strickland left,
Picchio said he would talk with
Bay and, Saturday morning,
freshman Joey Baca, whom
Strickland said helped a lot in
the past few months by making

appearances at conventions so
the Club would get known,
received a phone call from the
national organizers of
Buchanan's campaign
confirming Buchanan would
speak.
The speech was initially set
for April 20, but the national
organizers for Buchanan moved
it to early May due to a
scheduling conflict.
Strickland said that
President Nixon's link with the
College probably helped
persuade Buchanan to speak
because Buchanan worked as a
speech writer for the Nixon
Administration.
"I knew it was a long shot to
get Pat Buchanan, but I tried
every angle," Strickland said.
This included mailing letters of
support and offering help as soon
as Buchanan announced he was
running and also contacting all
of the California organizers for
Buchanan hoping one would be
able to get Buchanan.
The Orange County
Organizers said they might be
able to do something, but only
if Strickland could guarantee
250 people and would charge
$500 a plate. However,
Strickland knew that that was
not a feasible option for College
students, so he went through
his connections.
"I've supported Pat
Buchanan from the start. He
has a vision that other
candidates don't have. He
helped me form my
conservative views," Strickland
said.
Buchanan gained exposure
through being a syndicated
columnist and was aregular on
CNN's "Crossfire",
"McGlaughlin Group" and
"Capitol Gang." He also worked
in the Nixon and Reagan
Administrations.
"He is very personable. He
jokes around a lot and I think
he's going to be great for the
College," Strickland said. "I
encourage as many people to
come, for and against,"
Strickland added. The event
will also be open to the
community free of charge and
the Secret Service will provide
security.
Orthogonian Alumni Introduce Proposal
By Adam Webster
Copy Editor
The Orthogonian Alumni
Association submitted a
proposal to the Society Advisory
Board last Friday asking lor a
two-year reduction in the
society's three-year probation,
allowing for a new member
education class in the spring of
1993.
Steve Gothold, Society
Advisory Board chairperson mid
Dean of College Life, saia that
the proposal outlines why the
Society feels they shouid be
reinstated.
"(The Orthogonians) have
activated and involved a group
of responsible alumni that a^e
willing to take on the meaningful
supervision of the society, not
only during new member
education, but year round,"
Gothold said.
The letter also implies that
"under the leadership of those
alumni (since last June), the
Orthogonians have completely
restructured their New Member
Education Program and
submitted it to me and I found it
exemplary. They did everything
I asked every society to do."
Gothold said that the
Orthogonians totally
restructured their New Member
Education program by starting
over from the beginning aiid
laying down new policies. The
proposed program is in
compliance with state laws, the
College's rules and the Ad Hoc
Committee's recommendations
last year, according to Gothold.
Junior Kevin McGlynn,
Orthogonian President, said: "I
think that what the alumni have
done in cooperation with the
actives is what the
Administration has asked of us
and the alumni have requested
that we be returned to the status
of an active society so we can
prove our intent."
The main issues are to get a
pledge class in 1993 and to get
reinstated to do activities on
campus, McGlynn said.
Gothold said that the
Orthogonians point out in their
proposal that "it is very
important to alumni and actives
to establish continuity," Gothold
said.

three-year suspension from (a
